The VG is a bit of a mystery to me. I have tried to find out how it even got started in e-Cigarettes but can't find any information. I guess I'm just a little leary of it because there isn't as much information about it as there is PG.

What are the reasons people prefer VG? I know some have a PG allergy, but are there other reasons?

It produces thicker vapor Rob, but, IMHO, it cuts down the flavor or the liquid and I would wonder how it would behave in a carto because it's quite a bit thicker in consistency than PG.

Also, REAAALLY hard to 'stealth vape' with VG. I forgot that I'd put some VG juice in a 510, went to the movies with my daughter, held it in for a few mins, let it out and you'd have sworn a FOG MACHINE went off in there! :oops:

P.S. you have any 'pull' with Canada Post? If so, please call them and tell them that you're willing to bust some heads if I don't get my GG by Monday, willya? Thanks Rob, you're a pal!! ;)

Rob,

Domino pretty much nailed it on the VG description. Actually, my first 6 months of vaping (mostly with an 801) I only used VG based liquid. Then they changed their recipe and I couldn't stand the taste of their liquid any longer.

Sometimes, I do add a little VG to the PG liquid I get from you. Not always though. I usually mix 2 (and sometimes 3 flavors) in a 30ml bottle. And depending on my mood, I will sometimes add some VG to it. I rarely vape a liquid "as is"........almost always am mixing flavors to create unique stuff. :)

But a thick liquid does not work well in the cartos. I think most VG based liquid is mixed with distilled water to thin it.

I've tried a limited selection of VG and other than the vapor output, which honestly I get plumes of it from PG on my 6v devices, I didn't care for it. I can see VG being a necessity for people who are hooked on clouds, especially at 3.7v.

I guess the question is...how important is the vapor cloud to your smoking enjoyment? You might try experimenting with adding small amounts of VG to your regular PG liquids.

I have one customer that cuts the VG with Everclear. Something about the pure grain alcohol doesn't effect the vapor output like mixing it with water does.

I dunno...it's too much work for me...LOL I just crack em open and smoke it.

well i use thick liquid in the cartos both 510 cartos and KR808 cartos and its great. some of it is pg based but i usually do add VG to it. and i mix some things all teh time so again i add VG to that. when i make my own i even use VG 60mg nic then mix some plain pg in there so its usually a 1/2 and 1/2 bottle. i get flavor TH and loads of vapor. there is just something about a bunch of vapor blowing out of your mouth. i just dont know. lol. but its a great feeling. sounds real wierd doesnt it lol.

My vote: please get some VG cartos and juices!! Love your products and am developing a severe rash, and I think it's the juices I'm using. Almost all are PG, with a small amount of VG I usually add myself. So it's not very accurate, and probably not as much as pre-mixed. I've tried all VG liquids and cartos here and there, and I like them a lot. Lots of vapor, and I need that to feel satisfied. I really do. And I'd like to buy from you more, since I like seeing all the new stuff you always put up!

Thanks,
Rags

Please, please please???? A few for us to try? I love the convenience of cartos that are pre-filled. I fill my own sometimes, but they just are never the same as the pre-filled ones. However, I just tried on of my new 510 mega cartos I ordered from you, and so far, I love it. Put 30 drops in-yep-30!! Tastes good so far on my GLV. This 5 volts is so wonderful. Got another cap on order too. What atomizer would YOU suggest I use on the 5-volt model? I very much value your suggestions at VK.

Looking for more VG options.

Ok. I'm done now.
